From Folly to Fortune：I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!

Chapter 479: Chapter 476: Showing Off Love (27th Update)

Third Branch of the Old Mu Family!

Mu Shuangshuang heard the ’battle report’ from Mu Dashan and Yu Si Niang, and she wasn’t just happy.

She was practically ecstatic; a person who had always been reserved suddenly showed a stern face to Mr. Mu.

Isn’t this something to be explosively happy about?

”Dad, Mom, if you keep it up like this, they won’t dare bully you anymore!” Mu Shuangshuang said with a cheerful grin.

”Yeah, Dad learned from Old Mu! Today such a big event, we all went from the Third Branch, but since Old Mu didn’t have a new outfit, Dad and Mom wouldn’t let them at the table, leaving them only to wait in the kitchen until we finished to eat.”

”I now feel that breaking out as the Third Branch was right. If Big Brother really becomes successful, without a good outfit, maybe Dad won’t even let us enjoy prosperity!”

Mu Dashan had finally seen through it all.

His mom only remembers him as a son when she needs to drain him, otherwise she doesn’t recognize him at all.

”Dad, your analysis is spot on. A single outfit puts close ties outside the door; how chilling can one be?”

”Uncle and Aunt struggled and worked hard for that family; what for? Isn’t it just to have a meal together and live well?”

”Nowadays, they don’t even give the chance to eat together. They have to wait in the kitchen until Grandpa and Grandma are kind enough to let them eat.”

What Mr. Mu did today was really unfair.

No matter what, Mu Dajiang and Mrs. Liu are part of the family. Even if the Third Branch isn’t invited, that’s normal, but not inviting the entire Fourth Branch is not right.

Honestly, Mr. Mu is too biased; among several sons, Mu Dade has been studying since childhood and probably doesn’t even know where the fields are, or when the rice in the field matures.

Mu Dazhong needn’t be mentioned, lazing and messing things up, always sneaking off to the outhouse for half a day or the morning whenever there’s work.

Mu Danian is also quite cunning.

In the whole Old Mu Family, the only ones who work hard are the Third and Fourth Branches. Before it was the Third Branch struggling to support most of the family, Mu Dashan worked himself sick without daring to rest.

Mu Shuangshuang doesn’t believe Mr. Mu doesn’t know these things; he should have been turning a blind eye to all these unfair situations.

So, you must resist to make Mr. Mu realize how wrong he is!

”Shuangshuang is right, from now on, Dad will try to say no to them when possible.” Mu Dashan said with a genuine smile.

After a while, he suddenly said, ”Shuangshuang, your sixth uncle sent someone in the morning talking about the banquet.

Also, buying jewelry and clothes for your sixth aunt, he asked if you have time tomorrow, if so, meet at the village entrance first thing.”

”Of course, I have time. Tomorrow I’ll deliver cold noodles, after that I can accompany Aunt shopping, for the menu, I’ll discuss with Uncle during the day tomorrow, usually twelve dishes, right?”

Mu Shuangshuang wasn’t clear on Da Ning Dynasty customs; she knew twelve from the modern era.

”Yes, twelve, meaning blessings every month!” Yu Si Niang nodded.

”Mom, you’ve helped as a cook at the rich families, what dishes do they usually serve?” Mu Shuangshuang was adept at gathering good experiences.

She had a bunch of dishes in her head, none of them pricey.

But she truly didn’t know others’ standards.

”Typically, it’s chicken, fish, starter dish, and soup; these four are essentials, the others are more random.”

Most rural families are generous at banquets, except a few stingier ones, but even they would have chicken, fish, meat.

Mu Shuangshuang nodded; she had a good amount of flexibility.

”Mom, I understand, I have to work later so I’ll take a break first.”

Just after lunch, the Huang Brothers had gone to Lu Yuanfeng’s house, and Mu Shuangshuang was exhausted at the moment.

After washing her feet, she lay on the comfy bamboo mat, feeling entirely blissful.

Once finding Lu Yuanfeng’s mother, things with him should get better.

After a short nap, upon waking, the cicadas were still noisy outside, the weather unbearably hot; stepping out made you sweat instantly.

Mu Shuangshuang didn’t know if they had gone to work, so she decided to fill a kettle with water and bring two cups out.

As expected, when she arrived, three people had already buried the jar, now arranging it in place.

Lu Yuanfeng was hammering stakes, seemingly preparing for the outhouse.

Noticing someone watching him, Lu Yuanfeng looked up to see Shuangshuang with the kettle.

She was wearing plain clothes with no extra embellishments, not even a single embroidered flower.

But standing there, you felt the cleanest thing in the world was before you.

”What brought you here, didn’t I tell you to rest at home?” Lu Yuanfeng stepped forward, pulling her into the shade.

”I’m well-rested! Plus, you surely didn’t bring water, I brought some for you!”

Mu Shuangshuang raised the container she carried.

A whole jug of tea, should be enough for them to drink throughout the afternoon.

”But still, you shouldn’t have made this trip, so hot, what if you get heatstroke?” Lu Yuanfeng chastised with concern.

”From now on, I’ll handle the water. If you see the sun’s too bright, stay inside. I’ll finish and come back for you!”

Afraid Shuangshuang wouldn’t remember, Lu Yuanfeng emphasized it several times.

”Okay, okay, okay, whatever you say, I’ll listen, isn’t that enough?”

Mu Shuangshuang smiled helplessly but nodded obediently.

Rarely did Lu Yuanfeng take the initiative to nag.

”Fengzi, tomorrow I’m accompanying Aunt Xiao Hua for wedding shopping, come with me, we’ll learn a bit from experience.”

Saying this, Mu Shuangshuang felt a bit shy.

Speaking of others’ weddings, she felt strong, but when it came to her own, she was a bit anxious.

But not as anxious as Lu Yuanfeng.

Lu Yuanfeng was both excited and nervous.

Shuangshuang meant learning this experience for when they get married.

Was Shuangshuang willing to marry him?

Knowing what Lu Yuanfeng thought, Mu Shuangshuang quickly explained.

”Talking about marriage after I’m sixteen, alright?”

After saying this, she lowered her head, avoiding Lu Yuanfeng’s gaze.

Normally, she should act like a female rogue, embrace Lu Yuanfeng, shower him with kisses, then tell him he’s her destined man.

Thinking it over, better not; Mu Shuangshuang didn’t want to be labeled a female rogue.

”Big bro, I’m thirsty, stop hogging the water, let me have a sip.” Huang Er eagerly leaned over.

Ruining the atmosphere just built.

Mu Shuangshuang turned with a killer glare, then harshly said, ”Scram!”

Huang Er put on a face of grievance but felt gleeful inside; who told them to show affection before him? He’ll split them up!

Humph!
